Having left a pre-trial detention center, Tsukanov assured journalists that rumors spread in mass media about the fact that he was registered in mental institution in Karaganda was false. He noted that he never had mental disorders and in case he finds out who extended false information, he will file a lawsuit against that person.

“By this act I wanted the Minister “to fall on his face”. I am against any anti-national reforms, such as increase of retirement age for women”, - said Tsukanov. He said that he expected a possible detention and, for this purpose, he took days-off from work.
